Well it's been a while since I've posted, so I thought I'd better put pen to paper and say hello. I received some much needed motivation from Jen, thank you Jen:) and you're going to see a few changes in the coming weeks.

I'm having a new Logo and Banner done for my website which really needed a pick me up, a bit like me I'm afraid, I'm hoping this will do the trick and help both my website and me:) Nat from Natty Jane Designs is doing them for me and I can't wait till they are done. But for the moment I thought I'd share my Lemon Myrtle and Lavender soap bar with you.

For those of you reading who don't know about Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil, it has an extremely lemony and crisp scent; a really fresh smelling essential oil, it is an extremely potent antibacterial and germicide and is reputed to be even more effective as a germ killer than the more familiar Tea Tree.

Put this together with Lavender essential oil which has a calming effect on the body and can be used to reduce anxiety, stress and promote sleep and you get one beautiful fragrance. I've added Shea and Cocoa Butters and Sweet Almond oil to pamper and natural colours from turmeric, yellow clay and alkanet root and where can you see them? just visit my website of course:) AromaBeauty:)

The tragedy of the Qld. floods continues to unfold and has touched people from all over the world. The Aussie "help your mate" spirit is shining through and the amount of people who have donated and volunteered to help clear up the devastation has amazed me and is truly inspirational.

My family has donated personally, as has many, many, thousands of other families, but more money is still needed to help clean up the mess and to help people get their lives back to some sort of normality.

I’d really like to be able to help some more and would like to donate some of my handmade soaps to auction. I’m offering 6 of my soaps, you can choose whatever ones you’d like, plus I’ll pay for postage to Australian addresses, which brings the total value up to $65.00, depending on the soaps choosen.

So I’m asking everyone to please pass the word around and hopefully we can send some more help to where it is needed. You can bid via our Facebook page.

We are now open again for business, I'm so sorry the shop was closed longer than I'd mentioned on the website, but we were stuck for a while due to the floods and were unable to get home, but we are now up and running again.

Raspberry's & Cream smells delicious! a pretty pink bar that smells of ripe, juicy berries over yummy vanilla, with a touch of poppy seeds for gentle exfoliation, don't forget Valentine's Day is coming!
